LUNA ARTS is a mind-blowing extravaganza of installation art, interactive performances, and Art Alleries discoveries spread across Revelstoke’s downtown core. For one night only, downtown Revelstoke transforms into a living, glowing gallery, showcasing installations, performances, and creative encounters in unexpected places.

This year, the theme for LUNA Festival is “disguise and transformation”. This theme reflects the transformation that happens when the downtown core of Revelstoke transforms into an art gallery, performance centre and community gathering space.

Join us for the most magical night of the year in Revelstoke! Discover art around every corner, performances that will take your breath away, and immerse yourself in this small, vibrant, mountain town.
